Lyrics
See the days go by
Observation of the passing days.
How do you live your life
Raising a question about the approach to life.
You try to figure out how to
Attempting to understand how to navigate life's challenges.
Staying on the ground
Choosing to stay grounded or rooted.
And the days move faster than they ever did before
Noticing the acceleration of time compared to the past.
Why are you so sad, you know one day we will go
Addressing someone who seems melancholic, expressing hope for a better future.
Come on with me and we'll go own the streets
Inviting someone to join in a shared experience on the streets.
And I won't leave you behind
Commitment to companionship, vowing not to abandon the other person.
Or else I'll see you standing in line
Warning about potential negative consequences if left alone.
You don't have to, no need to hide
Encouragement to be authentic and not conceal true feelings.
Come and look outside 'cause we have cotton skies
Invitation to appreciate the beauty of the sky, described metaphorically as "cotton skies."
And there's no place around here for me
Expressing a sense of not belonging in the current surroundings.
I'll love you till I die
Commitment to love someone deeply until death.
Come on with me and we'll go own the streets
Reiteration of the invitation to share experiences on the streets.
And I won't leave you behind
Reaffirmation of loyalty and not leaving the other person alone.
Or else I'll see you standing in line
Warning about the possibility of witnessing someone in a vulnerable state if abandoned.
You don't have to, no need to hide
Encouragement to be genuine and not conceal one's true self.
